Install Google Chrome on Fedora 16/17
This explains how to install Google Chrome on Fedora 16/17.
First we need to add the Google yum repository to your system, for this we will add the 32 and 64 bit repositories.
Create the following file with root privileges.
|
1 |
$ sudo vi /etc/yum.repos.d/google.repo |
Add the following contents and save the file.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
[google-chrome] name=google-chrome - 64-bit baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/x86_64 enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub [google-chrome] name=google-chrome - 32-bit baseurl=http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/rpm/stable/i386 enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub |
Now we are ready to install Chrome.
|
1 |
$ sudo yum install google-chrome-stable |
Any dependent packages will be installed and after a short time you will be able to start enjoying Chrome.
If you feel adventurous you can also install Google Chrome Beta or Unstable by running the following commands.
|
1 |
$ sudo yum install google-chrome-beta |
|
1 |
$ sudo yum install google-chrome-unstable |
Very nice, also works on Fedora 18 as well. Many thanks.
